I Do Situate Myself In This Problem

I'm Trying To Think Of What Happens If We Take Expulsion Off The Table For Everyone, And Instead Think About The Rights Of Those Who Have Been Expelled Already, Which Would Include The Various Rights Of Refugees Who Came To Israel In The Aftermath Of Wwii, But Also Those From Other Countries, And What Rights The Palestinians Have Who Have Been Dispossessed Of Their Lands And Homes.

Perhaps The Promise Of Phallus Is Always Dissatisfying In Some Way.

Indeed, It Would Be Great If We Could All Be Liberated Through Reason, But I Think It Only Gets Us Part Of The Way. After All, Someone May Have A Very Logical View, But For Other Reasons We May Still Fail To Hear What That Person Says, Or We May Turn Their Words Around So That They Are Understood To Say The Opposite. The Task Is Really To Find Ways Of Addressing Deep-seated Forms Of Fear And Aggression That Make It Possible To Hold To Manifestly Inconsistent Views Without Quite Acknowledging Them.

It's Not Like It's A Brand New Vocabulary That Permits To Have A New Reality. It's Rather A New Vocabulary That Lets Us See That Our Lives Have Always Been More Complex Than Traditional Categories Allow. So, I Think, You Know, Maybe The Introduction Of New Words Permits Us To Rethink What We've Taken For Granted About What Forms Bodies Take, What The Name Is For Certain Kinds Of Sexual, Intimate Relations, How We Think Of A Life.

I Think We Are Affected By Others In All Kinds Of Ways. I Do Understand What It's Like To Wish To Control The Conditions Under Which We Can Be Affected By Other Human Beings, But None Of Us Really Are.
